He, however, declined to comment when asked about the route the bank will adopt for the proposed capital infusion.

When pointed out about the trouble its public sector peer State Bank of India is facing for getting a go-ahead for its rights issue, Narendra said he is confident of getting the fund infusion "by January or February".

State Bank of India, the country's largest lender, had initially announced its intention of raising Rs 20,000 crore through a rights issue, which would have required the Government to shell out Rs 14,000 crore to maintain its stake.
